From Art Smith, Oprah Winfrey's personal chef, comes a unique cookbook with more than 150 recipes to strengthen bonds between loved ones.
Throughout history, humans have broken bread together. This simple act strengthens our relationships with others and brings balance to our lives. There are many types of families in today's world; in using the word family, Art includes not only parents, brothers, sisters, and other relatives, but also those friends whom we have sought or chosen to share our lives. Unfortunately, in today's fast-moving world, the role of the shared meal as a sacred ritual has been threatened. Art Smith wants to bring it back.
In Back to the Table, Art provides readers with an array of mouth watering recipes that represent the very best of home cooking, including to-die-for sweet potato pecan waffles; an aromatic herb-roasted chicken over root vegetables with apple cider walnut mustard glaze; and desserts that range from an elegant candied kumquat and ginger pound cake to Art's signature version of Hummingbird Cake, a southern classic that combines bananas and pineapple to delicious effect. He also discusses how to set the table in a way that gives reverence to the food and the guests; how various cultures give blessings before a meal; how different kinds of foods and dishes can contribute to an atmosphere of family unity; and so much more!
Back to the Table is illustrated throughout with stunning four-color and black-and-white photographs of the food and of people sharing their tables, and their lives.
